Blending a passion for astronomy, video games, and music, Carter crafts a signature “chill-fi” sound—merging jazz, rock, and experimental electronic music into immersive, cinematic experiences. His work has been featured by College Music, LoFi Girl, Chill Select, and Stereofox, and he’s garnered millions of streams across platforms. His track Cosmic Sunset hit #1 on Apple Music’s Easy Listening chart, while Eclipse surpassed 2 million Spotify streams and landed on editorial playlists like All-Nighter, Chill Instrumental Beats, and LoFi Chill.

Carter’s latest album, Physics of the Impossible, was released July 17, 2025 via Swedish label Insert Tapes. Featuring singles like BOOMIN and Magical Universe, the album has been described as “Thundercat jamming with Brian Eno on a spaceship piloted by Sun Ra.” Across 13 cosmic tracks, Carter fuses jazz, electronic, rock, and jam influences to push the boundaries of sonic storytelling.

​

Beyond his solo work, Carter is passionate about scoring for video games and film—he recently performed on the score for the feature film Running on Empty starring Lucy Hale and Jim Gaffigan. A dedicated educator and entrepreneur, he’s written for Hypebot, guest lectured at institutions including USC, NYU, Drexel University, and UL Lafayette, and spoken at events like Gerald Veasley’s Bass Bootcamp and Rock to the Future.
